Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Find out how many don’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
If the schedule moves, tell us: a cooked roast can be held for a while.
If it is a themed open day, tell us.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

FAQs for Winton
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Can you feed everyone in a short break?
We plan the roast around your break. Rolls are the fastest way to serve.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Where on site can you cook?
Wherever your facilities team agrees, as long as it’s outdoors.
What space does the roaster need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.
Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
How the day works
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. For a staff lunch in Winton, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:15pm.

A closer look at the menu
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
